Hunt for Red October - stay with me here! It's action so keeps you engrossed, it's got Sean Connery with a russian/scottish accent and there's no romance!

Also see all the Harrison Ford Tom Clancy films.

I love "love Actually "Dirty Dancing and The breakfast club always makes me happy.

Yes to Strictly Ballroom - love, love, love this

I really really like the new Walter Mitty film with Ben Stiller. I think it's really inspirational and uplifting.

Anything by Richard Curtis - Love Actually, Notting Hill, About Time. You can't go wrong.
